So did we have new scouts for QB's and WR's?

Because if not. Look at the Fox years

QB's drafted- Randy Fasani

Stefan Leflors

Games started- 0. 2 QB's in 8 years. Also ZERO td's.

WR- Walter Young

Keary Colbert

Drew Carter

Dewayne Jarrett

Let the above names sink in. Some factoids.

Walter Young drafted in 2003. Gets his first NFL CATCH. 3 YEARS later.

Colbert and Carter the most *cough* productive of this crew. Colbert 4 YEARS, 8 TOTAL td's. 2 td's per YEAR.

Carter-8 td's in 4 years as well.

Only Jarrett remains in the NFL from this list.

Now if you want to talk LB's or RB's they are solid.

If the Panther's have the SAME QB and WR's scouts that picked that trash heap above, sorry but I need to see a TON of results.

I think there was definitely a different grading process this year with the WR's. We didn't pick theguy average speed with polish and great intangibles, just because that hasn't really worked for us before (Colbert especially). I'm fine with what they did this year and that's to take a guy with a little more edge and competitiveness. These guys definitely sound cockier than the guys whoo have come before them, but that self-confidence may be a good thing.

New scouts? idk

New coaches? Well outside of cantwell (who the team likes) Clausen and Pike are the only players we've drafted at QB since Scherer arrived.

These WRs are the first we've drafted with Colbert as our WR coach.

I think these guys are as important as anyone for the development of our young guys.

My sentiments exactly.

This is the first year we've taken a quarterback high since Kerry Collins. Clausen isn't expected to be a project, but Pike is. So lump Pike in with Fasani and LeFors, and expect different things from Clausen.

As far as receivers go, LaFell is the third receiver taken by the current regime in the first three rounds. Jarrett's a bust, but even when he was drafted it was said that he needed time to develop. He just didn't.

Colbert was good as a rookie and inexplicably got worse as his career progressed. When he lined up across from Moose he was better than expected, and when he had Smitty on the other side he tanked.

LaFell is a different type of receiver than both Jarrett and Colbert, and I think he'll stick around, if for nothing else because of his blocking ability. He complements Smith well and should be able to contribute immediately. It's not about scouting, it's about drafting the right fit, and this year we did.

I'm pretty happy with what we have. It's a good draft for Carolina.

should we expect clausen to call LaFell the N word and become an alcoholic then?
